Chapter 746 Exploration (Thanks to Lao Kohler for supporting the Silver Alliance)
On the surface of the dark sea, the ancient "Blue Avenger" swayed gently following the ups and downs of the waves, surrounded by endless fog and difficult sunlight.
Lumian met "Stormbringer" Alger again.
The holder of the "Hanged Man" card stood on the deck. His dark blue hair was still messy, as if he was being corroded by the sea breeze all the time, and his clothes had changed.
Dressed like a sailor as before, he put on a captain's coat with blue background and gold pattern.
"Explore on your own." Alger looked at Lumian beside the "Magician", nodded calmly and said, "I don't have any experience to share with you. If I had, I would have figured out everything about this ghost ship.
It’s a secret.”
These things were confirmed by the "Magician" lady. Lumian had no doubts. After thanking him, he stepped on the wooden deck and walked forward step by step.
He did not hesitate to activate the remaining aura of the "Blood Emperor" in his right palm, but no feeling of terror escaped.
On the contrary, his palms were cold, and there was a burning pain inside.
Lumian raised his right hand, took a look, and found that the light red scar that was originally only slightly brighter became a little brighter, but the skin covering it became increasingly pale and lifeless.
I wonder if the residual aura of the "Blood Emperor" after being sealed by the "Underworld Man" will not be able to inspire the most critical special features of this ghost ship... Lumian walked around the "Blue Avenger" with a little worry and trepidation.
The ship's cabin spun around in a circle.
During this process, he was not attacked by a rope or otherwise affected.
"It seems that the residual aura of the 'Blood Emperor' still has a certain effect, otherwise it would not be so peaceful..." Lumian muttered silently to himself, stepped into the cabin, and explored room by room.
"The Hanged Man" Alger did not follow, but stood on the front of the deck, watching from a distance.
After Lumian's figure disappeared deep into the cabin, the "magician" raised his right hand and gently drew a circle in the air with his index finger.
A little bit of bright starlight emerged, first condensing into a transparent crystal ball, and then expanding into a circular dreamy curtain.
On the curtain, Lumian's figure appeared, wandering around the captain's cabin, occasionally stretching out his right palm to touch different things.
"There should be gains." "Magician" said in a magic stick-like tone.
"The Hanged Man" nodded lightly, and did not ask what gains he would get or what changes he would bring, because Ms. "Magician" could not predict a certain future, and Ms. "Hermit" could only see some blurry pictures.
.
——After Mr. "Fool" fell into sleep, the Major Arcana cards have explored the "Blue Avenger" many times, but they have been unable to unlock the core secret of this "ghost ship" and find out what remains of the Tudor Dynasty.
The treasures that came down.
Due to the special nature of the "apprentice" path in this regard, the "magician" only helped the "Hanged Man" discover some other secrets, but could not touch the deepest one.
Mr. "Xingxing" explained this as:
"The 'Blue Avenger' is not only affected by the distorted authority of the 'lawyer' channel, but also has obvious utilization errors, changing positioning, and grafting space characteristics.
And this is consistent with the actual situation of the Tudor Dynasty:
Among the five nobles under the "Blood Emperor" Alistair Tudor, Amon is the "stealer", that is, the king of angels in the "wrong" way, and later became the corresponding true god and the ancestor of the Abraham family.
Mr. "Gate" is the King of Angels on the "Apprentice" path, and the ancestor of the Antigonus family is the King of Angels on the "Soothsayer" path. The Jacob family and the Tamara family both have the "wrong" path.
Angel, an angel who once took the "apprentice" path.
They obviously have a very strong ability to take advantage of mistakes, change positioning, and graft space.
If it is not a prerequisite to ensure that the "Blue Avenger" still exists and that the treasures are not damaged or lost, "Magician" feels that he can unlock the core secret of this ghost ship, but in that case
, the "Blue Avenger" will be broken into pieces, pieces that can never be restored.
Under the "watching" of the two Major Arcana cards, Lumian searched every room on the upper level of the cabin, but found no abnormalities.
He met seven or eight sailors one after another. Those people had received orders from the captain and did not disturb his exploration.
When he came to the stairs leading to the lower level of the cabin, Lumian glanced at the dark bottom with no end in sight. He maintained the excitement of the remaining aura of the "Blood Emperor" and walked down step by step amid the creaking sound.
.
As he walked, he suddenly smelled an unusual smell.
He had been descending for thirty or forty seconds, and normally he should have stepped on the floor of the lower cabin.
The distance between the upper and lower cabins of the "Blue Avenger" cannot be so exaggerated that a "Reaper" can't cover it in dozens of seconds!
Lumian was not surprised but overjoyed by this.
That’s right if there are any abnormalities!
If there is no abnormality at all, it can only mean that the residual aura of the "Blood Emperor" cannot function as it should after being sealed!
Lumian breathed out, calmed down, kept calm but not slow, and continued to make creaking sounds as he walked down the wooden stairs into the depths of darkness.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, he saw that there were no longer wooden steps ahead, and the steps under his feet had turned into black stone slabs that gave off a metallic cold feeling.
Arrived? As soon as this thought flashed across Lumian's eyes, his eyes were illuminated by a blazing white fire.
He saw blazing white flame spears one after another, flying in dense numbers and covering everything above.
It was like meeting a legion, and every soldier in the legion threw a flaming spear in his hand.
No place to hide, no way to escape.
Lumian's instinct was to change the positions of himself and the shadow, hoping to use this ability that could be used quickly to survive the first round of attacks, and then look for an opportunity to "teleport" away.
At this moment, he suddenly had an idea.
Very risky idea.
Lumian's expression turned a bit crazy. Facing the countless flame spears coming from the sky, he not only did not use any ability, but also did not even take a dodge stance.
He straightened his back and pushed his right palm forward.
The right palm has the seal of "Underworld Man" and the residual aura of "Blood Emperor".
They have all been activated.
The densely packed blazing white flame spears instantly solidified like a torrential rain.
They stopped in mid-air at the same time, neither moving forward nor falling.
Seeing this, Lumian breathed an uncontrollable sigh of relief.
The bet was right!
Gradually, those blazing white flame spears slowly extinguished, faded little by little, and finally disappeared completely.
Before Lumian could make further observations, bright firelights lit up on both sides.
They were like wall lamps embedded in the wall, dispersing the rich darkness and allowing Lumian to see his surroundings.
The place where he is currently is a deep and wide hall, but it is not as big as he imagined.
When those blazing white flame spears were thrown at him like an endless flock of crows just now, he felt that he was standing in an ancient battlefield, a battlefield whose area was measured in kilometers, and the hall in front of him was equivalent to the great prayer hall of Saint-Vieve Church.
hall.
At a glance, Lumian's eyes suddenly froze, and his heart seemed to have stopped beating.
He saw a huge throne made of black iron placed deep in the hall.
There are patches of redness on the surface of the throne. I don't know whether it is the rust caused by the long years of erosion, or the old blood spilled on it.
At this time, there was a figure on the throne!
The figure was like a giant, wearing a dark red sacrificial robe and an iron-black crown. His right elbow rested on the armrest, supporting his buried head.
The long hair that shimmered with a faint blood light fell down, covering the figure's face.
Lumian was no stranger to this figure. He had seen him at the "Fountain of the Samaritan Woman", but there was a certain difference between his clothes then and now.
That is the figure of "Blood Emperor" Alistair Tudor!
However, this figure does not have the terror, violence, and madness in the "Fountain of the Samaritan Woman". It also lacks the atmosphere of war and destruction, as well as the substantial sense of oppression and conquest. If it could not be seen directly, Lumian
You will definitely think that there is nothing on the Iron Throne.
Phantom? Lumian closed his eyes and relied solely on other senses and his own spirituality to sense.
In this sense, there is nothing on the Iron Throne, which is full of red traces.
Lumian's heartbeat gradually returned to normal. He opened his eyes again and looked at the Iron Throne.
The figure remained motionless.
Lumian could not bear to observe the weakness of the figure, nor did he activate the "Eye of Disaster". He moved his eyes away and looked at other areas of the hall.
Under the nine steps corresponding to the Iron Throne, there are five mottled stone chairs, two on the left and three on the right.
"Can't you add another one to make it more symmetrical?" Lumian couldn't help but cursed.
He knew that the five stone chairs should represent the five nobles of the Tudor Dynasty.
I don’t know who smashed these ancient mottled stone chairs. Some of them were completely cracked and dominated by gaps. Some of them were broken into countless small pieces but barely maintained their original appearance. Some of them had their backrests broken.
The seat surfaces were missing, and some were in a molten state as if they had been burned by flames for a long time.
Was there a battle here? Lumian tried to find corresponding traces from the black stone slabs, the huge support pillars and the surrounding walls, but found nothing.
There are no items either... Didn't it mean that some of the treasures left behind by the Tudor Dynasty are hidden here? They have been stolen? Well, Termipoulos said before that if I don't have enough levels, I will forcefully explore the "Blue Avenger"
No., it is likely to cause Alistair Tudor to be resurrected in my body... From this point, it can be inferred that there should be something or a layout here... Lumian tried to move forward again.
As he walked, he kept looking at the figure on the Iron Throne, observing every detail.
Suddenly, he saw a pair of eyes, iron-black cold eyes.
The figure on the Iron Throne slowly raised his head.
